    I have yet to hear what we would be fighting for in the Ukraine? What values are we fighting for again?

    That's kinda how propaganda works...you absorb it, accept it, and spread it without even knowing it's propaganda.

    It’s propaganda to simply ask for defined reasons prior to committing to war against a nuclear power ?

    Good logic

    I’m sure WeirdoMSU will have time to figure it all out when he is an E-3 cook assigned to USAREUR.

    ?We? are not fighting. The Ukrainian people are fighting for their home, just as we too wood.
    Under no circumstances do I think we should go to war over this; and yes the situation is dangerous. How dangerous? Just read Tuchman?s ?The Guns of August? and that will tell you just how dangerous it can be. However, it is a risk we must take.

    Yes. We are not fighting, nor should we. Again, nobody has ever defined what values we would be defending in the Ukraine. To all the Billy Bad Asses out there that want the US to go to war, PM me and I will help arrange your flight.

    He is literally meaningless, but he is a nuclear power. He is not coming for us.

    We are not committing to war against Russia. We are simply helping others defend their nation against a tyrannical dictator who is hell-bent on destroying them.

    Again. What US values are we defending in the Ukraine? There have been dozens of bloody conflicts around the globe that we totally ignored. Why now?

    Again. You have not demonstrated what dog we have in this hunt. If you are that supportive of the cause, I will pay for your ticket to Kiev.

    You're a good dude for all your service my man! Watching those children(any children) suffer because of the stupidity of others is tragic, they are completely innocent! I can sure understand why you didn't go, though! Thank you for your service!
